Next new drama: I lost Snoopy. Iʻve heard it one hundred times, and 100 stories too - donʻt take your eyes off a Russian Tortoise - except mine of course. My good guy is the exception, said, everyone. After his soak in the front yard - it was so nice and sunny, Snoopy walked over to the bush that he always cruises under after his soak. Half an hour later he was gone. We looked everywhere in the neighborhood, under the house, tore up most of the bushes in our yard. We put some hibiscus and radicchio out in the yard but no luck. This was on Monday. I made some flyers, put them up around the neighborhood, filed a report with the humane society, and posted information on the Hawaii Tortoise Club. My son is devastated. I will never roll my eyes at people whose tortoiseʻs walked away when they were not looking. Yes, probably karma since I rolled my eyes all the time. I hope that since itʻs mating (breeding) season he hasnʻt gone too far away. ??
Do not give up. As we all know, some don't go too far away from where they got themselves lost. My fingers are crossed & I'm sending you big positive vibes. Stick smelly things he likes out on your porches. No wonder you have a migraine!!

Thanks Jan, there have been lots of happy ending stories as well. Days, weeks, even months later. My son is worried about Snoopy finding water. Snoopy is WC, he can probably figure it out even if itʻs not his country of origin,( thatʻs what Iʻm telling my son anyway.)

I canʻt stick Chubbs on my porch. ?
